Community-based healthcare made great advances toward improving health within given geographies. Now, leading healthcare practitioners are moving beyond place to think in terms of special groups of people, or populations, according to a new infographic by tork.

The infographic highlights five key considerations as healthcare organizations make this move.

As the healthcare industry’s pace from volume-based to value-based healthcare payment models accelerates so does the demand for more effective management of population health. With the growth of these payment models, healthcare organizations are taking on more risk in terms of shared savings and shared risk arrangements and are investing heavily in programs to support population health. These programs are expanding in both scope of services and health conditions and disease states managed. With the help of advanced technologies in healthcare, this growth will only continue.

2018 Healthcare Benchmarks: Population Health Management is the fourth comprehensive analysis of population health management by the Healthcare Intelligence Network, capturing key metrics such as populations, health conditions and health risk levels targeted by population health management programs; risk stratification criteria; prevalence of value-based payment models supporting population health management programs; population health management processes, tools, workflows and forms; and program outcomes and ROI from responding healthcare organizations.

Healthcare is a central part of modern society and its world is changing like never before, from how care is delivered to how research is gathered and how it’s all financed, according to a new infographic by IBM.

The infographic presents the four biggest challenges healthcare is facing and how technology can help move the industry forward.

The accountable care organization, or ACO, has become a cornerstone of healthcare delivery system and payment reform by raising the bar on healthcare quality and reducing unnecessary costs. There are now more than 700 ACOs in existence today, by a 2017 SK&A estimate.

Understanding and removing barriers to health and coordination is the key to successful care coordination, according to a new infographic by Optum.

The infographic examines seven essentials steps to removing these barriers.

When acknowledging its position as a top-ranking Medicare Shared Savings Program (MSSP), Memorial Hermann is quick to credit its own physicians—who in 2007 lobbied for a clinically integrated network that formed the foundation of the current Memorial Hermann accountable care organization (ACO). Now, eight years later, collaboration and integration continue to be the engines driving the ACO’s cost savings, reduced utilization and healthy patient engagement rates associated with Memorial Hermann ACO’s highest-risk population.

Population health management is one of the primary strategies for achieving greater value in healthcare, according to a new infographic by leidos.

The infographic examines how healthcare organizations can create effective and sustainable population health programs.

A laser focus on population health interventions and processes can generate immediate revenue streams for fledgling accountable care organizations that support the hard work of creating a sustainable ACO business model. This population health priority has proven a lucrative strategy for Caravan Health, whose 23 ACO clients saved more than $26 million across approximately 250,000 covered lives in 2016 under the Medicare Shared Savings Program (MSSP).

Population health management programs are a key factor in a healthcare organizations’ ability to improve health outcomes and lower healthcare costs, according to a new infographic by Conifer Health Solutions.

The infographic follows the journey of two health plan members for the cost and quality impact of implementing a successful population health management strategy.

Healthcare stakeholders must understand the non-medical factors that contribute to disease, including behavioral, genetic, social, healthcare delivery and environmental, to help formulate, target and implement effective population health management, according to a new infographic by Transcend Insights.

The infographic illustrates what’s happening within each of these domains.

Population health management remains a top-ranked healthcare development opportunity, according to 2016 industry trends data from The Healthcare Intelligence Network, with many organizations deriving clinical and financial gains from population health’s data-driven, risk-stratified care management approach.

Patient attribution is a foundational component of population-based payment (PBP) models, which are based on a simple concept: providers accepting accountability for managing the full continuum of care for their patients, according to a new infographic by the Health Care Payment Learning and Action Network.

Healthcare organizations with access to electronic healthcare record, claims, socio-demographic and administrative data, have to apply that data through all available lenses to act properly on the data to improve health, according to new infographic by Optum.

The infographic details three possible lenses through which healthcare data should be examined, as well as finding opportunities for intervention and measuring intervention success.

The move from fee-for-service to value-based healthcare is driving the need for increased capabilities in population health management, including addressing all of the areas that may impact a person’s health. There is growing recognition that a broad range of social, economic and environmental factors shape an individual’s health, according to the New England Journal of Medicine. In fact, 60 percent of premature deaths are due to either individual behaviors or social and environmental factors. Healthcare providers who adopt value-based reimbursement models have an economic interest in all of the factors that impact a person’s health and providers must develop new skills and data gathering capabilities and forge community partnerships to understand and impact these factors.

Paramount to population health management success under risk-based contracts is strategic oversight of the ‘rising risk’—individuals with two or more unmanaged health conditions. One quarter of respondents to the 2016 Population Health Management survey by the Healthcare Intelligence Network zero in on their own ‘rising risk’ populations.

A new infographic by HIN examines the health risks served by population health management programs and how population health management services are delivered.

2016 Healthcare Benchmarks: Population Health Management analyzes responses of more than 100 healthcare organizations to HIN’s third comprehensive industry survey on PHM trends administered in spring 2016. It delivers the latest metrics on current and future PHM initiatives, providing actionable data on the most effective PHM tools and workflows, risk identification strategies, communication and engagement tools, program delivery modalities, results and challenges, and much, much more.

More than two-thirds of children’s hospitals consider population health a top priority, according to a new survey by the Children’s Hospital Association (CHA).

A new infographic by CHA examines the defined populations for which hospitals have aligned payment models for population health management, funding sources for population health programs, the percent of organizations with risk-based contracts and the need for reliable data for population health management.

Population health management remains a top-ranked healthcare development opportunity, according to 2016 industry trends data from The Healthcare Intelligence Network, with many organizations deriving clinical and financial gains from population health’s data-driven, risk-stratified care management approach.
